10. It is torture if you would not want it done to you.

Edited on Wed Sep-20-06 03:02 PM by annabanana

The term is not "vague". It is deliberately fluid.

The human imagination is limitless. The human capacity to inflict outrage is infinite. To define the terms would be to erase the limits.

"It says here that we can't sew Cheerios under this guy's eyelids... It would be illegal and we could get in trouble"

"Yeah?... hmmm...Ok then, use Cocoa Puffs... Problem solved.

How can we consider ourselves a just and good nation if we allow torture?
